Description
Slade House is an early to mid 18th-century building constructed of ashlar with a hipped stone roof. It stands three storeys high and features an eaves cornice and parapet. The façade includes four ranges of double-hung sash windows with glazing bars, moulded architraves, and bull-nosed sills. There are two doorways: one with Tuscan pilasters, an entablature, and a pediment, and another with a bolection-moulded surround.
Inside, the hall has a stone flagged floor and a chimneypiece with a shouldered architrave that rises through a pulvinated frieze. The staircase is notable for its turned balusters and columnar newels, with wainscoting up to dado height and fluted Corinthian pilasters as muntins. The rail and dado are ramped to the newels and muntins, respectively. One exceptional panelled room features apsidal niches with blocked Gibbs surrounds, flanking a chimneypiece with a mirror in a shouldered architrave above. Giant fluted Ionic columns support an entablature with a pulvinated frieze. Slade House forms a group with No 139 and the former stables.
